She really takes the time to get to know you and your future spouse so her ceremony is written personalized and perfect. She took into account our venue and made beautiful similarities between love and nature which was perfect for us. Her ceremony was sincere and put tears in both of our eyes. She as also brief and not "too wordy" which was perfect. We got so many compliments on her and we would recommend her to anyone, no matter if you want something nondenominational, or perhaps more religious. She will make your ceremony personalized and perfect. She is extremely prompt and responsive to emails and questions. She also promptly filed for our marriage license with the county and we got our copy in the mail very quickly. She also does wedding day-of coordinating and will do rehearsals, however we didn't need these services. Although we know she would have been great!

She has a warmth and kindness that makes you feel at ease, and a professionalism that makes you certain you're ceremony will go off without a hitch.

If you are in need of someone to officiate your wedding, look no further. Jennifer is the perfect person to oversee your special day.

We had Rev. Jim officiate our wedding on 12/17 at Hotel Arista in Naperville. From the first…read moremeeting, Rev. Jim was wonderful to work with. He really took the time to get to know us as both individuals and as a couple. The ceremony he put together was perfect. it was so personal, funny, and heart-warming. All of our family and guests couldn't stop talking about how great Rev. Jim was Over a month later and people are still talking about Rev. Jim and the ceremony! He truly made it memorable. I highly recommend Rev. Jim to anyone getting married. Not convinced? Think about it, the one thing that is an absolute necessity for a wedding is an officiant to marry you. You don't necessarily need the flowers, fancy dinner, music, or all the extras, but you do need an officiant! Therefore, it is the most important part of the wedding. Hire the best. Hire Rev. Jim!!!

Wow. All I have to say is W O W. I read Jim's ad in a thousand different places, and the place…read morewhere I held my wedding actually recommended him to me. I called him, and it took around 3 weeks for him to return my call, and another 4 weeks to get an appointment! I took the appointment, and decided to look elsewhere in the meantime. I did end up finding another person to perform our ceremony, so I called the rev as soon as I knew this. I figured it was ample notice, and that I was not being rude as our appointment was still 3 weeks away. I tried to talk to him in person several times, but kept getting the machine, so I left a message stating; "We have decided to cancel our appointment with you, as we have found someone else to perform the wedding. Thanks, and we will call you if we need you in the future." The rev was not happy--I received SEVERAL phone calls from him at my JOB! He actually took down the number on the caller ID from my initial call, and called my receptionist to the point where she actually said, "Who the heck is this guy?" I had asked him to contact me on my cell phone, and gave him the number back when we were thinking of hiring him. Things got more strange as time went on. He called me from a strange number, so I answered. He asked if we were still getting marred on x date, and if we needed him! I told him NO, and thank you. He actually called my wedding venue and told them that I was CANCELING THE WEDDING COMPLETELY. You can imagine the insane phone call that I got from my wedding venue..........................................

Myself and the new bride reached out to Christine, and from the beginning she was absolutely great…read more We had quite a few setbacks in our wedding planner and it seemed that everything that could go wrong did. Christine, assured us that everything would work out and had such a message she gave us, that made us feel at ease. From the beginning she walked us through the process with the county and how to properly to do our license and what was needed. We were lost as our photographer cancelled on us at the last minute and the misses was quite upset as now we did not have a photographer and Christine stepped in and gave us a recommendation that far exceeding our expectations. Even at the last minute booking we were never rushed, we were provided several options for the ceremony and each one was remarkable, it was hard to choose. So we took different options and sent them to her, and let me say it was allot of changes and there was no hesitation as she delivered examples each time, even with a couple last minute changes, I was expecting a different reaction, but we were wrong and she delivered with such grace and patience, I sure would not have had. The day finally came and I met her first, of course the bride was running a bit late, mind you it was 25 degrees out and we were having an outdoor wedding. She came and talked to me and we walked where the ceremony was going to be. It was time, and as my wife was walking down the aisle, she made sure I did not peak bit was telling me how beautiful my bride looked and as a guy you know I wanted to see, but she with military style kept me focused. The time has come, and even with a fur coat, it was really really cold. The ceremony, we never imagined the message that was delivered would ever be that emotional and with love in the message but the love in her voice as she delivered dour ceremony. Not only did we feel it, our guests felt it as she just didn't read through the service, you could feel that it was a true feeling in her voice that was amazing. The only thing I regret, was not getting hand warmers for us, as seriously it was cold but a beat was never missed. Christine, thank you for being a part of our ceremony, thank you for uniting us as one, you will always be part of our family. There are far and few true sincere people that not only believe in their work and take so much joy in what they do. The calling you have is an inspiration to us all. Thank You so much!!!!! Dave and Alissa

Jenny is more much than a coordinator. My mom had a small stroke about 6 weeks before our wedding…read more Jenny went from day-of-coordinator to a life raft. I will never forget, after sending her the email explaining my mom's situation, Jenny calling me almost immediately - literally just offering her ear. After letting me express all my fears, tears, and anxieties - she got to work. She encouraged me to take a beat to feel all the feelings, and then insisted we have another call a day or two later so I could "brain dump" everything wedding on her. Jenny was able to take that unorganized, jumbled mess of a phone call and spit out a highly detailed, actionable, and prioritised to-do list that broke down not only what I had to do, my husband had to do, but she took on things that MY MOM was supposed to do. I cannot tell you how much this was appreciated - it makes me teary eyed just thinking about her kindness and how she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was a spot of brightness and hope amongst the dark weeks leading up to it. Sure enough, my mom recovered beautifully - was not only AT the wedding, but dancing a speech-giving with the best of them. Thank you, Jenny, for believing that would be so - getting us to the finish line and just overall being a wonderful human.

Jenny from Blue Moon Events was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding…read more Although we hired her for a day-of coordination package, the support she gave us in the months leading up to the big day was absolutely invaluable. Her regular check-ins kept us on track, she helped us stay organized, and she personally recommended nearly all of our amazing vendors. She also constantly made sure we were doing okay and offered help wherever she could. She truly went above and beyond. When the wedding day arrived, Jenny and her husband Jeff took over and everything went off without a hitch. We didn't have to stress about a single thing, which meant the world to my wife and me. We were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment thanks to them. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone. She is a total pro and an absolute joy to work with. 1000% worth it

The…read morething that set her apart from the other officiants I was looking at was her website - it contains so much information, including faqs, services, sample ceremonies, and pricing. She had all the answers to my questions already! We picked the partially customized ceremony for our secular ceremony, and she drafted a couple versions for us to review. It was so easy communicating with her. We mostly emailed, but we scheduled an in person meeting when we were in town to meet up with our wedding vendors. She is extremely nice, organized, and professional. She took care of the paperwork after the wedding, so it is one less thing to stress about! Stop looking around because she will take care of you. We highly recommend her for any ministerial needs.

Given the Covid pandemic we had to pivot our wedding venue and format, and Reverend David was very accommodating. We really loved the various choices he provided us with in terms of the wedding script.

He wrote a beautiful script for our wedding as well. Our ceremony was outside in a tent in 93* heat, so we appreciate how smoothly and quickly he had the ceremony go so our guests could get back inside. We had him come to rehearsal as well which I think was good for our parents to see how the day was going to go. Reverend David sent us a copy of our marriage certificate within two days of our ceremony, so hopefully we will get our license quickly. Thank you for being a part of our day!

Rev. Phil was a great and lucky find. My husband and I don't really have the same spiritual views…read moreand we almost went with a friend officiating the wedding. When I changed my mind and decided I didn't want to leave God out of our wedding, I said that I would pay for and find the officiant. I admit I didn't shop around. My wedding planning approach was one and done. Once I found something I liked, I was done "shopping." I liked that Rev. Phil offered a free intro session before committing to his services. After the first one hour meeting, my husband also liked him and we were sold. We did the full package and I'd recommend it. The love story was definitely the best part of the service. It's true what the other reviewers said, people talked about that love story for weeks and months after the wedding. We were willing to make fun of ourselves and this really helped carry-off the fun of the story. Rev. Phil has a great knack for telling a story. Everyone was laughing, including us. So many of our pictures show me looking around to the crowd laughing at my ridiculous self and trying to make eye contact with someone mentioned in the story. We were also able to incorporate a touching candle-lighting memorial for my husband's deceased parents, as well as readings that were a mix of religious and secular. Rev. Phil is very detail-oriented and will give you explicit instructions and details about each part of the service. I found this helpful, as I didn't want to worry about all the details myself. As he says, he's the professional and will take the stress of this part of the wedding off of you. As a bonus, I heard he even "fooled" by super-Catholic mom by wearing his collar. No grief for no Catholic wedding! Rev. Phil really helped make our wedding a perfect, unique and special night! I'd recommend him to anyone!

So we originally planned to have our very outgoing friend get ordained to marry us but due to…read moreconflicts she could not. So I looked for an officiant and read some great reviews about Toni. First, she is very professional. We spoke for about 20 minutes and she made us feel very confident in her. The four months leading up to the wedding didn't require much. She emailed us a packet with all the info and things we needed to give her. You basically use her different readings and put together your ceremony and of course she is open to customizing. About 2 weeks prior we sent our wedding itinerary. Because of the Covid quarantine we were not sure if we could do it at our venue. Turns out they only allowed 10 people so we decided to do it at our house. We have a very nice size house and very big backyard. I sent her my vows the day before, since I am the Groom. My wife sent hers a week before. So the day of we got word of 80% chance of storms. So all the outside work I did needed to come inside. We transformed our living room into the venue. 15 minutes before it stopped raining and we had our friends and family move everything out to our back patio with a gazebo where we originally planned. Toni got there 30 min prior and spoke to us about how it will go down. Then went to our wedding party and our little ring bearers how to walk in. I was scrambling to set up the walk in music and our Zoom video for guests that couldn't attend. After running around and sweating I said I was ready. Toni walked me on and I took my place. Our party walked in and finally my bride. Toni gave me perfect instructions how to meet my bride and her father then we met and held hands. Toni read our chosen script and did it perfectly. Her voice was loud but not too loud. When we got to our vow, she handed my bride her printed vows and said to take a deep breath. It went flawless. Next she handed my vows and repeated to take a breath which I did. Yadayafa it was perfect. She gave us a great suggestion how to do the kiss and then another on the way out. It was so professional. She was so kind and thoughtful but also very controlling when she needed our attention and focus. She was strong but pleasant. Our wedding was not as planned. It was chaos but Toni brought it all together. I'm so glad we used her especially with a chaos wedding. Toni knows what she is doing and is very professional. We are not religious and didnt want anything about God and Toni did it right. Butnif your are religious she can do that too. I would recommend Toni any time. She made our crazy day come together perfectly.

Toni couldn't have been more perfect! Trying to find someone to officiate our wedding was a bit…read moreoverwhelming - between sending initial inquiries, to the going back and forth, to finding out how outrageous the price for an intimate ceremony can be. Toni was very responsive from the beginning, super courteous and extremely reasonably priced, but was really did it was finding out that she speaks Spanish. That was very important since my mom primarily speaks Spanish and I wanted her to be able to understand what was being said during the ceremony. We met with Toni a week prior to our wedding day in order become familiar with her and go over they way our ceremony would play out. She was very professional yet warm. On the day of our wedding things got a little hectic since it was raining out and we got to the wedding venue later than we wanted to. Right away she put us at ease as we scrambled to try to get it together. She directed our small party as to what needed to be done and the ceremony went off without a hitch thereafter. If you are currently searching through an endless list of wedding officiants for your special day I say to you "save yourself the stress and look no further" Toni is nothing less than spectacular (whether or not you need her bilingual skills). She will give you 110% of her experience, professionalism and warmth! Sincerely - a very happy newlywed.
